Kronos (computer)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kronos was the name of a secret 32-bit graphical workstation developed in Akademgorodok ([1] near Novosibirsk, Soviet Union) in the mid-1980s. Rumors say that it was based on Niklaus Wirth's Modula-2 workstation Lilith, which in turn was inspired by the legendary Alto (computer) developed at Xerox PARC.
